Organised by Travel Weekly Asia, Asia’s leading travel trade publication, this year’s awards gala was held at Mandarin Orchard Singapore and attended by more than 100 hospitality leaders from across Asia Pacific. The menu of the night was specially prepared by chefs from two-Michelin-starred Shisen Hanten by Chen Kentaro, currently the highest Michelin-rated Chinese restaurant in Singapore.

In the “Best Upscale Hotel–Asia Pacific” category, award entrants were judged based on their ability to offer upscale amenities, full service accommodations, and the highest level of personalised service.

“This marks the second year that Mandarin Orchard Singapore has received this coveted distinction, and we couldn’t be more thrilled,” said Mr Tan. “We are grateful to be recognised for our efforts in remaining at the forefront of Asia’s rapidly evolving hospitality market, as we continue to translate the rich legacy of our brand to memorable experiences for our guests.”

The 1,077-room Mandarin Orchard Singapore stands tall in the heart of world-renowned shopping district, Orchard Road. Delivering the brand’s signature Asian Grace, Warmth, and Care since 1971, the hotel remains the accommodation of choice amongst discerning international travellers for its prime location and service excellence.
